Some anti-virus and anti-spyware programs can detect such SoftActivity programs as Activity Monitor, Activity Monitor Agent and Activity Logger as spyware. To install SoftActivity software you must be the owner of the computer or authorized by the owner. In this case you may easily add SoftActivity programs to Exclude/Ignore/Exceptions list of your anti-spyware. Most of such programs provide such lists. McAfee calls it Trusted Programs.

SoftActivity Activity Monitor and McAfee security software
